Goldinthesea Aims for a Winning Debut at Southwell

Wednesday evening brings exciting All-Weather racing from Southwell, broadcast live on Sky Sports Racing. The Come Racing For Free 18th June Novice Stakes promises to be a thrilling event, featuring three untested colts. Goldinthesea, recently transferred from Joseph O'Brien's to Ed Bethell's stable, showed impressive form at Dundalk in January, with the third-place finisher subsequently winning, suggesting a promising future for Goldinthesea under new management. Penny Time is an exciting contender, trained by Hugo Plamer, having convincingly won at Southwell last month and seeking a third consecutive victory. Owen Burrows' Sassicaia, with only one race under his belt, a win at Wolverhampton in December, remains an enigma with potential for growth. Debutant Shadow Boxer, representing Victorious Forever and costing €520,000, will have the market dictate his chances. Another competitive race, the Ladies Day Sunday 16th August Fillies' Handicap, features three winners from their last outings. Cool Molly, with a three-pound increase after winning the All-Weather Vase Fillies' Handicap at Lingfield, commands respect with two wins in her last three starts. Vencedora, carrying Sheikh Mohammed Obaid's colors, is lightly raced and unexposed, having won her first race in a three-runner event at Newmarket in September. Rogue Citation, with a similar profile to Vencedora, won her last race here in October. The finale of the evening, the Summer Socials At Southwell Racecourse Fillies' Handicap, sees Seven Fires attempt to complete a hat-trick in her fifth career start. With two versatile wins at Newcastle, she steps back up to six furlongs and is expected to be hard to beat. Top-rated Barefoot Beach, having only run twice, aims to return to winning form after a close second at Kempton. Zighy, having recently broken her maiden, could yet prove better, having never finished outside the top three in five starts.
